So, I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but I was looking at my downloads on steam just now and I noticed something peculiar:

As you can see, it's Steam VR. I opened it and it game me a very basic interface. It tells me the headset is not found and includes 5 clickable GUI buttons on the bottom labeled: HMD(Head mounted display I suppose), Controller 1, Controller 2, Base Station 1, Base Station 2; respectively.

 

I suppose they are really pushing forward with the steam VR. Ive seen a VR button bug out at the top by the big picture button before, but I've never seen it actually launch. Unfortunately, I don't have a headset, or I might be able to do more with it. 

Wishing leads to ambition and ambition leads to motivation and motivation leads to me building an illegal rocket ship in my backyard.

Ya if I remember before I've seen this on Linux Steam beta build couple months back. Although I have no VR hardware to test it. Not sure if it's still there.

I guess what we are going to get is for HTC Vive and Oculus Rift users a 3 dimensional steam application GUI to move through the library, menus, Store etc...

It's big picture mode for your vr headset.
Haven't used it in a few months, was really clunky then can't speak to how it is now

Higher frame rate over higher resolution.
